Decoration for a Plate: Notre Dame 1870

Félix Bracquemond's "Decoration for a Plate: Notre Dame" (1870) is a black and white print depicting a Parisian scene with a view of the Notre Dame Cathedral, a bridge, and figures strolling by a lamppost. The artist, who was known for his intricate linework, captures the architectural details of the cityscape and the surrounding landscape in a detailed and expressive manner. The print, intended for a decorative plate, illustrates Bracquemond's interest in the intersection of art and design, using a simple yet evocative style that reflects the Impressionist movement of the time. The print is now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
